60 min Follow Along Shotokan Karate Class - Back leg compression

Hi! 👋
Here is the trailer of a new Yūshin Geiko Online Class!
Wait...
Yūshin… What ??? 😅
Yūshin Geiko is the name I gave to my way of practicing, sharing and teaching Karate. It’s not a style of Karate or a new martial art that I have invented, but rather it’s a personal approach and interpretation of the teaching that I myself received from my Sensei - my teachers - in Japan. Yūshin Geiko is composed of the traditional Shotokan Karate core principles and techniques, which I have enriched with Hatha Yoga and Tai Chi exercises regarding flexibility, strengthening, energy, breath control and meditation.
----------------
In Karate and martial arts, we use different types of body compression (I usually teach 6 different ones) and this class is focusing on one of them and today's we will focus on one of them, the back leg compression. 👊🔥
This 60-minute follow along class is designed more for mid-level practictionners and people with a few years of training experience will enjoy it most.
Most of this session draws on an important part of my personal practice that comes from my training in Japan at KWF under the guidance of Yahara Shihan.
Here is the content of the class:
- Warming up
- Basic Sonoba Kihon (Choku Zuki and Oi Zuki) and explanations about the natural standing stance (Shizentai), the use of back leg, center of gravity and body mass
- Explanations on how to manage our training attitude and improve our techniques during practice
- Basic Sonoba Kihon (Mae Geri, Yoko Geri Kekomi, Mawashi Geri), explanations about stiffness and relaxation
- Sonoba Kihon for back leg compression with the 4 basic Uke. Explanations on how to make good Zen Kutsu Dachi and Koshi Kaiten (hips rotation)
- Explanation of why our training relies heavily on decomposed Kihon and the puropse of such exercises.
- Ido Kihon for back leg compression with Yori Ashi, Uke and Gyaku Zuki (Jyu Ippon Kumite style). Explanations on the compression stance.
- 2 Special fundamental exercises (from my KWF Shirokanedai days 👊) to deepen the back leg compression (and make it faster and stronger) and explanations on these and traditional Jyu Ippon Kumite.
- A few important words about honesty, perfection and the pursuit of feelings in training (not to be missed! 😉)
- Kata: Bassai Dai, trying to use all the principles we covered before
